    ✅ My Favorite word is Anticipation, here's how it helps me reduce my financial problems... 💠 I'm a planner, I like knowing what to expect. Don't get me wrong though, there is a LOT that I either can't plan for, or don't want to plan for. We all need some kind of uncertainty in life to keep it spicy! 💠 But when it comes to money, I like to anticipate everything I can. Because if I can anticipate it, I can plan for it. That's why I came up with my system for Anticipation Funds. This systematic process is how I rarely touch my Emergency Funds. 💠In this video, I walk us through how I think about this and the system I use to reduce my financial problems and hardly ever have to dip into my Emergency Fund 💠 If you need help getting organized with your money, check out the ILMA Budgeting & Debt Elimination Course and start living your Ideal Life now
